World of Tanks: Premium for Bonds? Not really…
2 min readIs it really true, premium time and tanks for bonds coming with Update 1.0? No, not really. There has been a certain video being shared across forums and Facebook groups, where someone without sources claims premium for bonds is coming with Update 1.0.
While Wargaming does have an idea to, maybe, just maybe, introduce a possibility to buy premium tanks for bonds, this is still an early idea with no final decision, no defined prices and it’s not even confirmed that will come at all.
So, just to make it clear: Update 1.0 will not bring premium for bonds! And if you don’t take my word, just check what was announced at the forums a few days ago.
To clear thinks up about this topic: The possibility of acquiring tanks with bonds is indeed something that we are considering, however for now this is only an option and is not something that is coming in the 1.0 Update. Even if this option becomes reality at some point, we are nowhere near the point to talk about price points, so any prices floating around are completely theoretical (just like the option itself). Also, we are definitely not considering selling bonds for money.

That channel who made the video is terrible, the creator is always making videos containing false information and clickbait ***les and thumbnails.
Personally I’d like to see ordinary tier 8 premiums to be purchasable for bonds. It would create a nice “bridge” for F2P players where they after playing the game for a long time would be able to pick one of their favourite tanks to help out with credit grinds, crew training, etc. When it comes to CW tanks I actually don’t know as none of the CW tanks interest me that much.
Sure, buying tanks for bonds is a good idea, but a little difficult to do. Many people who bought tanks with real money may be against it.
On the other hand, renting premium tanks for bonds is a more doable idea I think.
I personally would be satisfied to have a chance to try a tank in the live server before I buy it.
You are not interested for CW tanks because you are bot player. that’s the 1. Second thing, why whould WG gives you opportunity to buy tier 8 premium tank for bond, because you are old player? No kid, not going on that way, if you think to WG ”respect” you as a player, you need to spent a lot of real life money in this game.
What really WG needs to do, is to remove loader like a crew member from autoloaders.
wow someone is on his period 🙂
If you can’t accept those facts, you are not much better then this kid above.
Look at this clown 😀 Hilarious 😀
Yeah sure, everyone that isn’t interested in an Obj.907 with full gold loadout is a bot player :* You are incredibly deluded and stupid.
I think they’d be better off if they removed you from the game 🙂
You do realise these tanks technically still need and use a loader crew member?
Not to mention promoting the most obvious scams regarding gold.
Bonds could be used to provide a discount for premium tank purchases in-game…you know, it’s just a suggestion.
They should sell special non premium tanks for bonds. Like 15k bonds for a CW reward tank, for example, 10k bonds for Deathstar or Foch 155.
You guys are missing the larger point of the article. When WG says they are not considering selling bonds for money, its an obvious and blatant lie. As soon as everyone who has bonds has spent them all, they will begin selling bonds for cash and they will make huge amounts of money doing it. When they announce that special tanks and reward tanks will be available only with bonds, there will be thousands of suckers lining up to swipe their credit card.
No, I don’t think so. They never sold any Tier X Premium/Reward tanks, why sell bonds if they could just sell these tanks? A lot simpler. Bonds are the End of Game currency, WG wants players to have something to “grind” once they finish getting Tier X’s. End game content! Then with these bonds they will (if introduced) be able to buy Tanks that you can’t get with cash. Look at the Personal Mission tanks, again never sold, but puts players grinding to get them. There are loads of other ways for WG to make money, and to be honest, they need to make money because without it, they can run any game we play…
I only partially agree with you. I think bonds will be the currency to buy end game tanks. But I don’t believe for a moment that they won’t eventually sell bonds for money.
It takes a year to get a single improved equipment, how long would it take to earn a premium tank? 4 years?
well yeah, maybe more. But it is GOOD to have OPTIONS
Well having a tier 8 premium tank of your own choice after 4 years is still better than not having one after 4 years 🙂
Maybe we should be able to upgrade regular tanks to semi-premium ones after we elite them, and those would get +25% crew xp and credits? Tanks bellow tier 4 and above tier 8 would be excluded and price would be determined by tank tier.
Ya their never gonna sell bonds…. MY *** LOL
I like this idea very much, but I think that they should get the full bonus, i.e. +50% credits and crew xp 🙂
Where do I buy a the bonds? My father gives me 100 euro-s what I can spend for birthday on what I want to spenf. Please tell a the to me where to buy a bonds because I can not found on the premium shops. Thenk you wery much a.
If Ph3lan says it’s not happening then it’s probably not happening in the next 3 days. :p
